All our taps have had the following work completed:
- Old finish chemically removed by a licensed and environmentally responsible local firm
- Tap seats re-machined to obviate the risk of slow drips, as is common on old taps
- New compressed fibre washers have been cut to size by hand using imperial wad punches on a fly press
- Spindles are lathe turned to ensure they meet specific tolerances
- Rubber washers are replaced
- Gland nut packing is repacked in the traditional way using graphite string. This stops water leaking from below the handles
- Polished, again by hand, using a polishing lathe
Guaranteed not to leak!

We
operate a small machine shop and can complete custom machining and
modifications. We can also get any tap plated in chrome, nickel or
copper.
